<div>Great point. Many years ago when I first started Vintage Racing, the tracks were 'forgiving'. If you made a mistake, you spun off mowing the lawn or creating a dust cloud. The only penalty was embarrassment. I'll never forget then one first spring event I showed up for at Road America and it was like I was in a street race, surrounded by Century Link Fencing.</div>
<div><br clear="none">
</div>
<div>I was told that as far as Road America was concerned CART had demanded it. CART was afraid one of their cars would leap the cement barriers/snow fencing and crash into the crowd. </div>
<div><br clear="none">
</div>
<div>No question that was a potential issue. The change was a good idea...but drivers like me (prone to make errors) missed those 'forgiving' tracks.</div>

Whenever you start to spin it’s two feet in. I’ve been in a few
situations where other drivers have tried to save a spin by not
following this advice and they always come rolling across the
track backwards following an unpredictable path usually collecting
a few unsuspecting racers along the way. Always go two feet in. <br clear="none">
